Edit: How did I miss their #1 promise to shift even more into being an Ad Company

While Firefox remains the core of what we do, we also need to take steps to diversify: investing in privacy-respecting advertising...

Kind of ironic that Raffi Krikorian is both

  • The new chair of Mozilla.ai, a $30 million project geared towards advancing environmentally unfriendly slop
  • The CTO of Emerson Collective, a "philanthropic" corporation that allegedly cares about the environment

Raffi, if you're reading this, the best thing you could do for both Firefox and the environment is to pocket your entire salary, wind down your division (and if you must lay off employees, let them pocket theirs!), and return the remainder of the $30m to Mozilla for development of Firefox.
